Meromero Days

Daecher:
Nice to have you here. To be honest, I think elaboration is a great way to get thoughts straight. That, and you'll get a more detailed response from people if you're honest with us.

Narrating about daily life and opinions is a pretty good way to encourage responses from a tulpa, whatever the form may be. Narration can also be incorporated into your everyday activities and be a pretty simple form of passive forcing. Like you described before, some people focus really intensely in active sessions and burn themselves out or do it in large gaps. There are also people whose tulpas progress slowly because all they do is casually toss thoughts their way and expect them to pick up the slack. Personally, I believe that passive forcing can have its own positive effects on development and that time spent passively forcing should be balanced with active forcing (then again, you hardly know me and my preaching about the wonders of passive forcing wouldn't mean shit). The key word here, though, is balance. Make an effort to narrate to your tulpa frequently during the day, and set aside some time for just the two of you when you can. If there's something you feel you want to work on, set aside more time. If you're going to be cramped for time for a few days or a week, squeeze in a little attention on-the-go.

For future reference, take shit I say with a grain of salt. I'm still new to things as far as tulpas go, but I'll throw my two cents in when I can whether anyone wants them or not.

Again, it's nice to meet you, and we're looking forward to hearing more from you.

I still don't know who sends these spammers in our direction...

Reporting in to show I haven't given up and/or died.

Been struggling a lot the past few days. Not just forcing issues, but concentration and mood issues in general. Starting to make some lifestyle changes to fix that. For instance, I'm signing up for a gym membership, since I notice that being sedentary isn't doing my brain any favors. At Sandy's recommendation, I'm bringing Melo along for support. In some cute gym clothes.

To bring some progress talk into this, I have actually noticed one thing for a while that I haven't given too much thought. When I visualize her, I sometimes get stuff that I'm not actively trying to visualize, like extra movements. While forcing just now, I was visualizing her in front of me so I could hug her, but instead of staying in my arms it felt like she started climbing me to sit on my neck, and despite my best efforts I couldn't bring her to her original position. Sometimes it's things I consciously expect even though I don't consciously force it, and sometimes it's just completely random and unexpected, but still within the boundaries of what could pop out of me unconsciously. So I don't feel I can take these things as undeniable proof of sentience, which is mostly why I've been disregarding it. But lately I've been told that tulpas might in early stages try to find other channels for communicating than with mindvoice, and it seems like this is another channel worth paying attention to. Whether or not any of those early instances were actually her, I do owe it to her to pay attention to anything that might be her. And somehow it sounds reasonable that she'd have an easier time communicating through a channel that comes naturally to me (that I don't have to consciously imagine in order to feel). As opposed to mindvoice, which doesn't come naturally to me at all.

Sands:
Yeah, sounds familiar. Weird shit would happen and you're like, woah. Some people would learn to trust what they see before they trust what they hear.

Sands:
Except we want peoples, so we keep trying to get peoples. Your definition is so outdated...
